Sumario:Tomasa Linares Garzón (1895-1968) was a student at the Provincial Academy of Fine Arts in Córdoba between 1916 and 1926. This institution was founded by the painter Emilio Caraffa (1862-1939) as the "School of Painting. Life drawing" in 1896, initially created for the education of young ladies. This paper presents some of Tomasa's unpublished drawings preserved in the private collection of Dr. Julio Argentino Zelarayán. Specifically, it analyses some human figure studies with live models that Tomasa made between 1921 and 1924 as a student. Their existence contributes to fill certain gaps in the local historiography and questions some assumptions about the teaching of the nude in the Cordovan academy. Its consideration allows to enquire some aspects of women's education in the social and cultural context of the first decades of the 20th century in Cordoba.
